And in this outfit I do wear a lot of different textures! I like to wear monochrome or ton sur ton outfits. And if I do wear multiple colors, it’s three colors at most. I also don’t wear many accessories. I love them, and have baskets full too, especially earrings. But I often wear my basic accessories. That means gold earrings, gold watch and some bracelets. Most of the time I find accessories rather clumsy. But hey, an outfit can come across as pretty boring if you are not wearing any accessories.. And you probably think that about my outfits anyway because I like a simple clean look.
Wearing different textures (when you don’t stand out in colors).
But to not let myself be a Plane Jane completely, I do like contrasts in an outfit. For example, something cool with something very feminine. Or as in this outfit, wear different textures. I received this outfit! Not through a collaboration but because of a television program. I don’t remember how much I told you about that because I got sick afterwards and didn’t blog and respond for a few weeks.
So I was surprised by a television program, at my house!, where they surprise people who are ill. So my surprise was: shopping at home! With a stylist who had brought all kinds of clothes. And I was allowed to pick out two sets. I wanted the stylist to also pick out a set for me. And that’s what this one has become. And what different textures are included? Suede boots, silk skirt, mohair sweater and denim waistcoat.
Wearing different textures for more interest.
I had to get used to the waistcoat first because I never wear a vest or waistcoat. But it does add a little something extra to the outfit! The skirt is really great. This is all branded clothing, so expensive, but you notice that in the quality. The skirt is quite heavy, thick and does not draw at all. That is immediately the case with the somewhat cheaper skirts made of ,silk,. I am very happy with this outfit, it fits great and I feel completely myself in it. Wearing lots of different textures, so it’s certainly not a boring look!
I would really appreciate it if you would follow me on Instagram.

That must have been a surprise, Nancy. Was it on TV? I’d love to see it. And by the way, your outfits are never boring! xx

Yes it wss on tv, the link was the part of me on tv.
I LOVE this outfit Nancy! You would NEVER be described as a plain Jane – you have way too much style for that! All the rich textures in this outfit make it stand out and accessories aren’t even needed as there’s so much to enjoy in the clothes themselves.
What fun it must have been to get that surprise from the TV show and be able to shop from home with a stylist!!!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Yes it was. They had contacted Gerben because they had to no my sizes and Gerben had to make sure I was at home that day! He really struggled with that!
I do love this outfit! I am going to see if I can come up with something similar: all the textures and the brown with the black, I love it!

Love the sleeves or should I say shoulders – 90s style on your vest. Looks great with the skirt and leopard. I love mixing textures too, great for this time of year. You look great and I am enjoying simple gold jewelry these days as well.
have a nice weekend!

A Plain Jane you certainly aren’t, more of a Fancy Nancy 🙂
Joking aside, there’s nothing plain about this outfit whatsoever. It doesn’t get any better than a silk skirt and a mohair sweater. I bet that outfit was very strokable.
I’m definitely an accessories girl, although that hasn’t always been the case. I don’t feel dressed when I’m not wearing accessoires, although I do admit that sometimes they do get in the way a bit. Have a great weekend, Nancy xxx

Nancy, there is nothing plain jane about this look which is F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S!!! You look like a star. I’d say that this outfit is definitely a keeper.

I love that you embraced the vest with this Nancy. I am such a fan of vests and think they can add so much to almost any outfit.
I bet that was such a thrill with the television show and getting the clothing!!!

It was! So much fun and such a unbelievable experience!
I really, really like this look! You look so edgy yet feminine! I’ve not given a lot of thought to the role texture plays in my clothing…dang, something else to think about! Although the reason was not fun, I’m glad you had the opportunity to work with a stylist and be on television!

Thanks Marsha, it was a once in a lifetime experience!
Congratulations Nancy , what a lovely surprise for you. I really like this outfit on you . I agree sometimes it is more about a mix of textures than colours. You could never be a plain Jane even if you tried. Many thanks for hosting .
